What SPF do I need for a full day at the beach in Sarasota?

SPF 50 broad spectrum, water resistant. SPF 30 is the minimum for any sun exposure. For a full day at the beach in Florida in late May, SPF 50 gives you more protection between reapplications. Broad spectrum means you are covered for both burning rays and aging rays.

How often do I really need to reapply sunscreen?

Every two hours when you are outside. Every 60 to 90 minutes if you are in the water or sweating. Sunscreen breaks down in UV light and comes off with sweat and water. Applying once in the morning does not protect you all day.

Can I use last year's sunscreen bottle?

Check the expiration date. Sunscreen expires and the active ingredients break down over time. An old sunscreen may look and feel normal but the SPF protection is reduced. If it smells off or has separated in the bottle, throw it out and get a new one.

Should I get a facial before Memorial Day weekend?

A hydrating facial a few days before is great and helps your skin hold moisture better during sun exposure. Do not get a strong exfoliating or chemical peel treatment within five to seven days of a long sun weekend as active treatments make skin more sensitive to UV.

Why does my skin look bad after a sunny weekend even when I wore sunscreen?

Usually because sunscreen was applied too thin and not reapplied. Combined with heat, dehydration, and hours of exposure, the skin barrier takes real stress that shows up as dullness, tightness, and uneven tone. A recovery facial the week after helps the skin reset.

What should I do for my skin the day after a lot of sun?

Cleanse gently, skip all actives, and focus entirely on hydration. Give your skin 48 hours to settle before using anything exfoliating. Then book a professional facial to help the skin recover and stop any emerging pigmentation from becoming permanent.
